How To Preserve Your Autographs

[dancingirl1]

You dont need to spend hundreds of dollars on sheet protectors. Just buy ACID FREE ones and they will be just fine !

I hate those gold signatures that smear if touched. How to protect the signature on the picture?

I'm thinking of just putting clear tape over it

[Hartster]

Clear tape will ruin any autograph.

Matte it, so nothing touches the signature. What I've done also - and this is not an optimal solution - is to put a piece of paper over the silver and gold signatures. That way, at least, it doesn't come off onto the sheet protector.

Man, these 2 autos are rubbing off daily just sitting around with no protection


I could really care about value, they are just my personal collection I want to hand so I might just try tape even though it will ruin it

A simple easy way to keep your autos safe is to put them in a frame in a room with low light not to fade them, and the should also be rather cool. Humidity will make your life harder (in other words - moisture sucks).

Hello,

I'm new to the forum and would like to welcome all fellow collectors.
I'd like to get some tips on what kind of marker to use to write an autograph on fabric that will be legible for a long time and won't get ruined.
I will have the opportunity to meet Giancarlo Esposito and have him sign a Los Pollos Hermasos kitchen apron. I would like to plan this as well as possible.

Regards
